Dear Rank math,

To whomever is reading this, I hope you are doing well!

For the no follow tags, I have selected the option in rankmath to automatically change the links to a no follow tag. However, I am now noticing the problem that I can no longer change them to DO follow links in the post editor. When I click advanced settings for anchor links, it has a “set to No follow” option, but I can not change it to a do follow. Since rank math has an automatic no follow tag embedded in each link, thee will be no way to change it to a do follow…

Do you know how I can work around this? How I can change it to a follow in the post editor? (I am using Gutenberg blocks for post editor)

Thank you!

Hello,

I apologize for the inconvenience you are facing with the nofollow tags in Rank Math. I understand that you are unable to change the nofollow links to dofollow in the post editor due to the automatic nofollow tag embedded in each link.

To work around this issue and change a link to dofollow in the post editor, you can follow these steps:
1. In the Gutenberg editor, select the anchor text for your link.
2. Click on the link icon and enter the URL in the provided text box.
3. After entering the link, click the Edit icon.
4. In the box for your link, click on the Advanced option.
5. You will see several options that you can select. Choose the Set to nofollow link option and click the Save button.
By following these steps, you should be able to change a nofollow link to a dofollow link in the post editor using Gutenberg blocks.

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reach out to our support team, who are available 24×7 and will help you out as soon as possible.

Hello,

Apologies for the inconvenience.

In this case, you can enter the domain in the NoFollow Exclude Domains in Rank Math > General Settings > Links to set the external links for those domains:
https://rankmath.com/kb/general-settings/#no-follow-exclude-domains

However, if you want to exclude specific link/s, you may need to use and customize this filter:

Hope that helps.
